Her pushchair of choice came as no surprise, given Silver Cross' long and royal heritage: it was given a Royal Warrant in the early 20th century and has supplied royal families with both its traditional pram - the Balmoral - and its modern models ever since.

MFM was given a sneak preview of the Sleepover 2 at the Kind & Jugend nursery trade fair at Cologne - and we liked what we saw. The new buggy has been given a more modern look with a curved carrycot, plain hood and removable bumper bar, but manages to retain the iconic coach-built style chassis, white wheels and the luxurious quilted design that Silver Cross is known for.

We don't have the full specs yet, but hope the new version will offer many of the same features as the current Sleepover Elegance, which is forward and rear-facing, travel system compatible, and comes with a carrycot that is suitable for overnight sleeping.

And we'll also have to wait and see if Kate stays with the brand and chooses the Sleepover 2 for her new royal baby.

We'll be roadtesting the Sleepover 2 in the near future - watch this space!

I read that they went for a double one -the phil n teds vibe if I remember right- it was in a magazine at the hairdressers. Makes sense, George is still a wee lad. What a beautiful family, wish I looked as nice as kate post birth, a year after my baby !

Yeah my mum read that too in New Idea Australia! It says 'rumour has it they have a Phil and Teds vibe? I've been asking everywhere but noone can confirm. They could be stirring the pot because it's an Australian company isn't it?
